Seeker of Teyvat

On second thought, it seemed that apart from the trip to Mondstadt this time, he had spent the rest of his time with Xiangling. Zhongli probably didn't want to pay attention to him, and Ningguang probably didn't want to disturb him either.

"By the way, in that package is the immortal statue that I brought back. You two can find a stand to worship it." Master Mao said, pointing at the package that Wang Daoyi had just taken from him.

Immortal statue...

Wang Daoyi had a bad feeling in his heart.

I quickly opened the package and saw

Sure enough, it was the small statue of the immortal that he had sold at the Xiao Market during the Lantern Festival last year, and it was of the Emperor.

However, the material used for the immortal statue in the package was far inferior to the amber that Wang Daoyi had used before. It looked like ordinary wood material dotted with some scattered gemstone grains.

Anyway, it looks good.

"Brother Daoyi... this is not you..." Xiangling also recognized the origin of the statue.

Wang Dao nodded: "When Mr. Zhongli was in charge of the construction of the Immortal Temple, he once asked me for some statues. I guess he wanted to make replicas of them as souvenirs."

As he said this, he looked at Master Mao and asked, "Uncle, how many Moras did you spend to buy... to buy this immortal statue?"

"Not expensive, not expensive." Master Mao waved his hand generously, "This is a fine immortal statue, made of top-grade Cuihua wood, and decorated with top-grade Yebo stone..."

After a pause, Master Mao continued, "It's only 10,000 Mora."

The corner of Wang Dao's eye twitched. Ten thousand Moras was indeed nothing to Wanmin Hall, but such a thing actually cost ten thousand Moras. It was really... He had only sold it at this price in the first place.

However, even if he thought it was too expensive, Wang Daoyi would not show it. He nodded slightly and gave Master Mao a thumbs up: "It's not expensive. It's worth inviting an immortal to my home."

Hearing this, Master Mao's smile grew even stronger, grinning, "Right, this is worth it."

It's not just Master Mao. Today in Liyue, people often take home a statue of an immortal. Although it costs a lot, most people have smiles on their faces.

They had worshipped the Emperor Immortal before, but now they had invited the Immortal back from an officially certified place, so he must be more "spiritual".

"Moreover, the head priest at the Immortal Temple said that the money from inviting the immortal will not only be used to maintain the operation of the Immortal Temple, but all profits will be used to support the elderly and children in Liyue. This time, we invited the immortal to do a good deed again."

Master Mao was smiling the whole time, and it was obvious that he felt the same way inside.

Wang Daoyi kept agreeing with Master Mao's views, and secretly gave Ningguang a thumbs up.

This move not only brought immortals and mortals closer together, but also saved the operating funds of the Immortal Temple, and even allowed the Immortal Temple to cover part of the funding for the widowed, elderly and young.

In this wave, Xianren won one hand, Ningguang won two hands, and it seemed that no one lost.

My mind is full of thoughts,

In reality, Wang Daoyi placed the statue of the immortal on the counter at the main entrance of the lobby and used it as a fortune cat. Well, the Emperor is the god of business, so it is normal to use it as a fortune cat.

After putting away the statue of the Immortal Emperor, I looked around and saw that there were not many people eating at this time. Xiangling seemed to be busy again, apparently preparing food in the kitchen.

Wang Daoyi came to Master Mao lightly.

"Uncle, I have something I want to discuss with you."

Master Mao took a sip of water, still smiling, and was obviously in a good mood: "What's the matter? Just tell me directly. We are all family. Don't be polite. I will definitely help you if I can."

He treated Wang Daoyi as a family member, and his words were full of affection.

Wang Daoyi smiled, then said cautiously: "Uncle, during the Lantern Festival, Xiangling and I will be eighteen."

"Oh, I'm eighteen now, an adult now, I have to..."

Master Mao was just about to say that he was an adult now and needed to grow up and become sensible, but then he immediately realized that there seemed to be something else in Wang Daoyi's words.

A long-awaited but not-so-good thing appeared in Master Mao's mind.

It seems that the cabbages in my own garden are about to be officially taken away.

Although he had already recognized Wang Daoyi, and even his own Xiao Baicai had been living with him for a long time, when this day finally came, Master Mao still felt a little conflicted.

"Uncle, I want to discuss with you my marriage with Xiangling."

Wang Daoyi said seriously, his eyes full of sincerity.

Master Mao was the head of the family after all. He was distracted for a moment, but finally reacted: "Wedding, okay, okay, it's time."

"But do you have other elders in Liyue? If there are no other elders, and I am the only one in charge, there may be some mistakes."

Master Mao never thought about whether to reject Wang Daoyi's proposal. He thought that if he was the only one to organize the wedding for two people, he would be too busy to handle it.

If his daughter's wedding is not perfect, Master Mao will be sad for the rest of his life.

Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly: "I have been an orphan since I was young and grew up in Qingce Village. If I were to talk about an elder, Grandma Ruoxin would be one, but now we are a little distant."

"Besides, Grandma Ruoxin is already old and is in charge of all the affairs of Qingce Manor. I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy to help me with the wedding."

Master Mao frowned slightly: "Is that so? What should we do then?"

"No problem. Mr. Zhongli of the Wangsheng Hall is well versed in all kinds of etiquette. We can leave the wedding matters to him. Moreover, he took care of me when I first came to settle in Liyue Harbor. He is older than me, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is my elder."

Wang Dao had thought about it long ago. No matter from which angle he looked at it, the only choice for the person to organize his marriage was Zhongli.

Professionally, Zhongli is familiar with all Liyue ceremonies, including weddings.

In terms of status, Zhongli is a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall and has some reputation in various industries. He can be regarded as a celebrity in Liyue, qualified enough to be the wedding organizer of Xiangling, the heir of the Wanmin Hall.

From the perspective of gods, Zhongli is Morax, the former master of Wang Daoyi. In today's Teyvat, unless justice comes or the Red King is resurrected, no one is more qualified than Zhongli to organize Wang Daoyi's wedding.

"Mr. Zhongli from the Wangsheng Hall..." Master Mao was a little confused. After all, the words Wangsheng Hall and wedding did not match each other very well.

Wang Daoyi smiled and continued, "Uncle, you went to see the Immortal Temple today. It was also organized by Mr. Zhongli. You don't have to care about the name of the Hall of Rebirth."

Master Mao was convinced by Wang Daoyi. He thought that the other party could even handle such important events as sending immortals to the temple and presiding over the immortal temple, so the wedding should be possible as well.

As for the name of Wangsheng Hall, it is nothing.

Chapter 381: Sea Lantern Festival and Invitation

After discussing some wedding matters with Wang Daoyi,

"I'll go to Shengtang to ask Mr. Zhongli. You two don't have to wait for me on the night shift."

Master Mao seemed to be interested, and after giving Wang Dao some instructions, he went out again in a hurry.

He shook his head slightly, although he originally wanted to go to Zhongli to help arrange the marriage, but Master Mao wanted to go, so Master Mao should go.

However, judging from Master Mao's tone, he probably wanted to treat Zhongli to dinner.

"Rounding it up, it's equivalent to me treating Zhongli to dinner."

With a slight smile, Wang Daoyi retracted his gaze from Master Mao's back and turned around to enter the kitchen.

Xiang Ling's little face seemed to be slightly red, and the movements of her hands had lost a bit of their usual quickness and precision.

Apparently, the girl heard the conversation between her lover and her father outside.

Without saying anything to 'tease' Xiang Ling, Wang Dao walked up to her, hugged the girl gently, then let go and helped to deal with the things.

There was love in the girl's eyes, but she didn't express it much. She went about her work silently.

it is more than words.

the other side,

Master Mao rushed to the Hall of Purity with a hurried expression.

Seeing Master Mao's anxious and joyful expression, the insignificant gentleman who was waiting at the door couldn't help but feel a little confused.

It is not worth mentioning that Zhenjun has seen many people who come to the Shengtang with anxious expressions. After all, the guests who come to the Shengtang are more or less having something bad happen around them, and it is normal to be anxious.

But it is rare for Master Mao to be anxious and joyful.

"Master Mao, I wonder why you come to the Hall of Rebirth?" It's not a big deal that Zhenjun knows Master Mao. After all, he is the big shopkeeper of Wanmin Hall. There are very few people in Liyue who don't know Master Mao.

Master Mao smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, it's no big deal, haha, I'm looking for Mr. Zhongli, is he here?"

"Are you your guest, Zhongli? You came back at noon today and are resting in his small courtyard. I will take you there." Although Zhenjun Zhenjun didn't know what was going on when Master Mao said it was okay and was looking for someone at the same time, but out of concern Wan Min Tang was valued by this unit, so she still received Master Mao with a smile.

He stretched out his hand and led Master Mao into the Hall of Rebirth through the side door. He went straight to the door of the small courtyard, stretched out his hand and knocked lightly.

"Your Majesty Zhongli, Master Mao from Wanmin Hall is here to visit."

"Please come in." Zhongli's voice came from the small courtyard.

The Insignificant Lord nodded and looked at Master Mao: "Master Mao, I want to receive other people, so I won't accompany you in. You can do it yourself."

Master Mao nodded, opened the door and walked in. Zhenjun Zhenjun watched him enter before turning around and leaving.

Entering the small courtyard, Master Mao soon saw a handsome young man sitting in front of the stone table, playing with the tea set.

"Mr. Zhongli, I'm sorry for interrupting you."

"Master Mao's visit really brightens up my little courtyard. Please sit down quickly. I've made some good tea, so we can have a taste together." Zhongli said politely, then pointed to the stone bench next to him with a smile. Indicated to Master Mao to sit down and chat.

Master Mao was not polite and sat down directly. Then he nodded to Zhongli, picked up a teacup and took a sip. "Hmm... slightly bitter at first, sweet aftertaste, and a little bit of the feeling of the sun after the rain. It is indeed the best quality of Qiaoying Manor. It's a bit of a waste for a rough guy like me to drink this kind of tea."

As a chef, a chef who has gone very far in the kitchen, it is very reasonable for Master Mao to understand tea.

Zhongli smiled: "Good tea is worthy of distinguished guests. It is worth it for Master Mao to drink this tea."

After a pause, Zhongli continued: "I wonder where Master Mao's behavior comes from?"

"Hehehe, hi, the child at home has grown up. Isn't this, hehehe..." Master Mao got down to business and laughed non-stop, "Ahem, Daoyi mentioned his marriage with Xiangling today."

"I asked the child if there were any elders here in Liyue Port. The child said that there are no more. Only senior Ruoxin from Qingce Village can still be considered an elder. However, senior Ruoxin is already old, so he recommended it to me. Thank you, guest guest Zhongli."

"Daoyi said that when he first came here, he took great care of you. Therefore, no one in Liyue Port is more qualified than you to arrange his marriage. Therefore, I came here today and wanted to discuss with you whether I can It is not up to you to arrange the marriage of these two children."

After Master Mao finished speaking his mind, he looked at Zhongli with burning eyes.

Zhong Li put down the tea cup in his hand: "I see. Speaking of which, I am indeed the elder of that child. If he wants to get married, I will naturally not let him go."

Zhongli, who had known about Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling's relationship for a long time, was not surprised that Wang Daoyi and Xiang Ling were getting married.

There was a trace of joy on his face. Although Wang Daoyi was no longer his dependent, there was still no problem in saying he was his descendant.

When the younger generation gets married, He, as the elder, is naturally happy.

Not to mention, the other person she married, Xiang Ling, was Grandma Ping's disciple, and in a sense, she was also Zhongli's 'direct' descendant.

Kissing and kissing belong to yes.

Hearing Zhongli's answer, Master Mao's face became even more joyful, and he couldn't help smiling: "Hahahaha, that's good, that's good, Mr. Zhongli is familiar with the etiquette of Liyue throughout the ages, and I feel very relieved if Mr. Zhongli is in charge of it. ”

"Well, according to etiquette, there should be six rites. However, current events have changed, and the ancient law may not be applicable. I will do some research and try to make this wedding a perfect one."

Zhong Li also had joy in his eyes, obviously he was interested in this job.

Master Mao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I feel relieved as long as you are here. How about I treat you to dinner tonight and discuss the process together?"

"I don't dare to ask my ears even if I wish." Zhongli nodded.

Although Master Mao is a chef himself, it is better to go to someone else's restaurant to discuss things like marriage.

So the two of them walked out of the Hall of Purity while talking and laughing, and walked to one of the most luxurious hotels in Feiyun Slope.

I don’t know what the two discussed. Anyway, at night, when Master Mao returned to Wanmin Hall, there was an lingering smell of alcohol in his body. Probably, what they discussed was a good thing.

Time passed, seven days passed by in an instant, and the Lantern Festival arrived as promised.

Liyue Port was once again decorated with lights and colorful decorations. As the crowds surged, the breath of the human world surged straight into the sky.

From Wang Daoyi's perspective, there is a stream of pure air rising up in this vast human aura, and all the filthy and demonic auras dissipate under the impact of these two auras.

Within hundreds of miles above Liyue Port, everything is bright and clear.

"Is this a kind of existence of the power of the human world?" Wei Wei sighed, and then Wang Daoyi retracted his gaze to the sky, "The clear air just now was probably the aura of the immortals like Mandrill who guarded Liyue. "

Compared with last year, Wang Daoyi's vision and layout this year have undoubtedly improved a lot. Last year during the Hai Lantern Festival, he also saw the smell of red dust in Liyue Port during the festival, but this year, he saw more things.

"The breath of mortals and the fresh air of immortals can be combined into one ball, which can wash away the filthy and evil spirits. Therefore, the Sea Lantern Festival is not only a festival to welcome the return of heroes, but also a huge ritual, using all the The breath of Liyue people combined with the breath of immortals washes away the filth of the whole year."

He shook his head, and became more and more interested in what was hidden in history, but he did not show it.

He turned his attention to two girls, one big and one small, standing aside.

The two girls stared at each other. The younger one smiled innocently and said, "Qiqi and Doctor Bai are out seeing patients. I have no place to play, so I came to see Senior Sister."

"If you have no place to play, you come to me... Why don't you go to the master to practice shooting?" Xiangling was furious. It was clearly her and Wang Daoyi's time alone, but it was interrupted by the sudden arrival of the little loli.

"Master Chef said that she has to help Mr. Zhongli of Wangsheng Hall to take care of matters concerning Senior Sister Xiangling and Brother Daoyi, so you don't have to go to her place to practice spears these few days."

Yaoyao looked innocent, but there was a hint of mockery in her eyes. Looking at Xiangling's angry expression, the little girl had a 'confused' smile on her face.
